If you're going to catch the Delta Variant of COVID-19 at a comic convention, you're going to want to make sure you were doing something worthwhile while catching it. After all, do you want your dying words to your family to be, "I should have gotten that copy of Man-Eaters signed, but I didn't know where the signing was taking plaaaaccceeeeggghhhhhhhhhh." That would be a bummer. Luckily, Image Comics has your back. No, they're not doing the responsible thing and avoiding all involvement with a large public gathering while the Delta Variant is still surging. We mean, they've got your back by letting you know where to get that copy of Man-Eaters signed. You're welcome!
